Default Restoration prospects for Damascus-Twist-Lamenated Steel

I have been looking at a few guns with "patterned" steel barrels and was contemplating a professional restoration. I was wondering how to determine if the barrels can be in fact resurrected to their original state. Some of the guns I've seen are in poor shape so I wanted to bounce it off the experts as to what I should look for when evaluating an old work of art and bringing her back to her original beauty. Is a Damascus pattern more of a patina finish? Is this process very involved?

Thanks for any and all insight!
